This time, it’s official, according to the LA Times, Marilyn Manson will headline the Sunset Strip Music Festival, on Saturday August 18, with punk rockers Bad Religion, and The Offspring. So far, the acts have only been announced for the last day of the festival, and they will also include Steve Aoki, Far-East Movement, Black Label Society, De La Soul, Dead Sara and the Mowgli’s.
There are still many performers to be announced, as the three-day festival will feature more than 50 acts performing in diverse venues beside the outdoor stages.
Another thing, the festival will pay tribute to the Doors, and artists are expected to cover one or two Door songs,.. errr I can’t wait for Manson to do a very Goth version of ‘People are Strange’ or ‘Riders on the Storm’.
The tickets are on sale at $75, but a VIP pass will cost you $135, and a 3-day pass $250
